Care Home Owned by Greensleeves Care in Buckinghamshire

brought him back to life in so many ways. The staff interaction is also appreciated as dad really enjoys this. He has become sociable again. It is also a relief to see him eating well again. The meals are so good, I often joke with him that he's in a 5* hotel. A huge thanks to the staff of Tickford Abbey as it is the people who make a care home and you are all appreciated. Not only do you take care of dad well, but your support for the family also helps on this difficult journey for everyone. Thank you!

home is always clean.
The grounds are beautiful and well tended.

activities and events for the residents. From arts and crafts to music sessions and outings, there was always something happening! Plus, being able to see these activities on Tickford's wonderful social media page meant so much to us as family members who live some distance away.

The care and support provided by the home manager and all of the staff was outstanding, particularly during the more challenging moments. Their patience, empathy, and understanding was always evident particularly helping us all navigate the waters of an Alzheimer's diagnosis. We would like to extend our thanks to everyone there.
We wholeheartedly recommend Tickford to anyone seeking exceptional care for their loved one.

Home, the staff made him feel like a guest not a patient. You can tell the staff enjoy their work and being here by the way they are with all the residents and the way they treat each other, it is wonderful to see and made me feel we have done right by intrusting them with Father. I can not thank them enough for the turn around in my Father's physical and mental heath, if I had not seen this with my own eyes I wouldn't have believed it. Whenever we go to see my Father we are made to feel welcome. Father always now has something new to tell me in what he been up to, from getting the questions right in the quiz, to see the pony's! Happy home, happy Father, happy life! Thank you.

very caring, always friendly and respectful. Visitors and family are always welcomed. A lot of thought is put into the many stimulating activities offered encouraging interests and interaction for the patients. Similar attention is given regarding meals, with nice menu cards issued and offering good home cooking. 'Famileo' is the newest concept offered where family members can post photos and send messages which their loved one receives fortnightly as a personal newspaper. Our dad appears to have settled in to the new surroundings remarkably quickly and if I have any regrets it is that we couldn't persuade him to make this decision at a time when he would have benefited from it more.

felt. The place is full of warmth, music, colour and cheer. There's always some activity or another in progress or coming up on the planner. The old abbey building and the gardens are full of character. A warm and caring atmosphere that makes you smile.

to a blood test when we couldn’t make it. He is treated at all times by everyone with dignity and respect. They go above and beyond in every way. They put on an excellent Coronation party and a Birthday party for one of the residents, this last weekend was lovely, both with fabulous food and entertainment in a huge marquee on the lawn, a lovely setting with lovely people. We recommend Tickford Abbey 100%.

visit, my first visit with my sister was something we'd been really worried about, and built up over time- we needn't have worried. It was clear that, whilst her condition has worsened, she's well looked after and happy, had bonded with staff members, and was comfortable where she was. It's lovely to see the same staff each time; care often has a high staff turnover, having a negative impact on residents. The staff are always lovely, her face lights up when she sees her favourites! I love to see the activities online, it's reassuring to see residents having fun and well cared for when I'm too far away to visit. What we're seeing gives us confidence in Mum's care- thanks for all you do.

in art, this really helps take his mind off from his early signs of dementia and paranoia. Overall, very pleased with the care from all the staff and the managers.

exceptionally clean. Tickford Abbey is very well managed and communication is excellent. I would happily recommend this home to anyone.

building which they do their best with.

on a fabulous 106th birthday party for our aunt and residents who wanted to join, with live music and then a private function and food with her for her closest family. We are all so grateful to them and for the guidance and direction of the manager who leads the Tickford team. I hope this review helps you to choose Tickford for your family member if they need care home care and support in their life.

Mum died shortly afterwards, but thanks to the manager and her team, Mum and Dad were together. We cannot thank Tickford Abbey enough. All the staff are kind, caring and compassionate and are supporting our dad brilliantly.

all the staff to be very professional, caring and friendly, and can't do enough for my dad at this difficult time. Tickford Abbey is a lovely, old building which has a really homely feeling.

looked after very well here. With attentive staff and excellent sensible management. We are both very happy here.

fantastic and there are lots of break out areas for residents to spend time. My uncle particularly loves the patio area and spends a lot of time out there, it has also been a great place for him to get to know a few more of the residents. Very pleased!

her room with lots of her favourite photos, paintings and ornaments as well as her settee and coffee table, so it is a calming, familiar place for Mum to go to if she is feeling anxious. The staff here are fantastic, they are very friendly and helpful and Mum enjoys their company as well as that of the other residents. The new manager is excellent, she reviewed Mum's medication and because of the wonderful care she is now receiving, her tablets have been reduced resulting in Mum being more like her old self and much less confused. Before coming here, Mum wasn't eating or sleeping properly but now she has put on weight and it is lovely to see her smiling and relaxed whenever I visit.

helpful and professional. The new home manager has taken the time to get to know the residents and what their individual needs are which has resulted in Mom being allocated a different room that is more suited to her needs. Since then, Mom has been far more settled and is really starting to enjoy herself. She has made some good friends and is getting more involved in the goings-on at the home. Thank you to the new home manager and the team at Tickford Abbey for helping Mom to adjust to her new life and surroundings while providing all the care she needs.

picked up straight away that I was nervous about making the right decision. I was offered an online viewing, which really helped as I was able to get a feel for the home. When the time came for my mum to leave the hospital, the home manager and her team were extremely helpful, always at the end of the phone and reassuring. They arranged for me to see my mums room. The room was lovely; it overlooked the most beautiful gardens. The home its self was full of character, bright and welcoming. Sadly my mum has now passed away. My mum, while there said it felt like home and said all the staff were lovely, and that the food was really delicious. I would certainly recommend Tickford Abbey as a care home.
